The Residential Tenancies Act has been amended. From 29 March 2021, these new regulations will obligate landlords and property managers to comply with this increased level of safety for the protection of tenants. These changes are comprehensive and include:
Once a year smoke alarms must be tested. The batteries replaced. Positioning checked. Information for the renter on how to use, test and not tamper with smoke alarms and report problems
Electrical safety checks every two years of all electrical installations, appliances and fittings by a licensed or registered electrician
Gas safety checks every two years of all gas appliances, fixtures and fittings such as heaters and cooktops by a licensed or registered gasfitter
Equal annual payments to smooth the cost, making it predictable and easy to manage at tax time
$0 Call Outs for diagnosis in tested appliances, fixtures and fittings
Free replacement parts for items like standard light switches, power points, safety switches, batteries and thermocouples
